I understand what you're saying and am entirely on your side with this.
From what I've heard, women really need a bar to go to where they won't get creeped on; at least in Raleigh. Gay bars are the universal choice for these sorts of events.
Question to GA
Fers: Do you tire of large groups of straight women at these clubs?
One of my favorite bars became a lesbian bar at some point last year. It become increasingly awkward to buy girls drinks to initiate conversation and I gave up that bar entirely.
